Request the Board approve an Ordinance entitled “AN ORDINANCE TO ACCEPT A GRANT OF UTILITY EASEMENT AND APPROVE THE PLAT OF EASEMENT FOR PUBLIC UTILITIES AND DRAINAGE FOR THE PROPERTY COMMONLY KNOWN AS 5030 THROUGH 5042 VALLEY LANE, STREAMWOOD, ILLINOIS.” This Ordinance approves the easements on the subject Shopping Center property and within the recently granted right-of-way.

Trustee Harper presented the Ordinance for first reading and posting.

Assistant Community Development Director Jeff Harris stated this shopping center was constructed in the 1970s and utilities installed along the front, side and rear of the property servicing the center and surrounding properties. No easement for maintenance was granted at that time. The Board recently accepted a right-of-way for this same area for similar reasons. The center owner has been very cooperative for maintenance concerns and is willing to grant this formal easement.

Trustee Cecille asked if the utilities are in good condition. Public Works Director Matt Mann stated the water main was replaced last year. Trustee Haque confirmed the owner is to maintain the property. Trustee Harper clarified that no building will be allowed in the easement area and that the owner is aware of this.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT - Trustee Thon/Trustee Baumer

A-21-060 Resolution – First Amendment to Professional Services Agreement

Request the Board approve a Resolution entitled “A RESOLUTION WAIVING COMPETITIVE BIDDING FOR EXCAVATION – MASS EARTH WORK, APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF A FIRST AMENDMENT TO A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH MTI CONSTRUCTION SERVICES, LLC TO PROVIDE CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT SERVICES TO THE VILLAGE OF STREAMWOOD FOR THE ADDITION / RENOVATION OF FIRE STATION 33, VILLAGE HALL BASEMENT RESTROOM UPDATE, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT GARAGE UPDATES, LIFT STATION GENERATOR IMPROVEMENTS AND PUBLIC WORKS MAINTENANCE GARAGE RENOVATION.” This Resolution authorizes the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for the recently approved Construction Management contract. The GMP is $4,096,239. Funds for these projects are included in the 2021 Capital Replacement and 2021 Facility and Equipment Replacement Funds (FERF).

Trustee Thon presented the Resolution and moved for approval. Trustee Cecille seconded the motion. Fire Chief Chris Clark stated the amendment for the contract with MTI Construction establishes a Guaranteed Maximum Price for renovation of Fire Station #33 and various small projects at Public Works, Village Hall and upgrades at two sanitary sewer lift stations. Bids were opened on May 6 covering all required trades. The amendment waives competitive bidding for the excavation and mass earth work in response to the capability of the low bidder to complete the work in a timely manner; this particular contractor has worked for the Village and MTI in the past and their performance is inadequate for our needs. Joel Foss, Stenstrom Construction Group, was present for questions.

Trustee Harper asked about cost expectations on this project. Chief Clark stated the costs are .58% over projections, including contingency costs. Trustee Cecille asked about the Village Hall projects. Chief Clark and Mr. Foss stated it is mostly to update the bathrooms and replace the plumbing as the toilets frequently backup, and a mop basin area will also be added to facilitate cleaning. Trustee Harper asked about the elevator. Chief Clark stated it was revamped during the Village Hall remodeling. ROLL CALL:
